TL;DR - We’re looking for a Reddit-loving Creative Strategist to join our U.S. KarmaLab team on the West Coast on the Gaming vertical.

What on earth is KarmaLab? Great question. Reddit’s KarmaLab is a creative organization that acts as a revenue driving engine for the company. We are a conduit between brands and Reddit culture, helping advertisers understand how to show up on Reddit to effectively reach their goals. In simple terms, we are Reddit’s in-house creative strategy team - an inclusive team of wonderful people with a potent mix of disciplines, trying our best to have a good ‘ol time while delivering results for advertisers–and revenue acceleration for Reddit–on this wild ride we all call “the internet”.

What you’ll do:

• Build creative strategies, invent ad concepts and campaign ideas that balance the needs of our advertising clients with the tastes of our audience.
• Write concept pitches, RFP responses and communications that embody Reddit’s sensibilities across our growing Gaming advertiser base.
• Translate client value propositions into strategies, language and visuals that Redditors find appealing and actionable.
• Inspire, educate, and drive client action through narrative-driven presentations and digital or IRL workshops that convey Reddit’s Business proposition.
• Act as a creative consultant and platform expert to Reddit’s gaming-focused clients

Who You Are:

• You have a deep knowledge of Reddit, its language & communities (bonus points for solid karma).
• You love to solve brand challenges, light up a room (or Zoom) with your passion for Reddit, and are a keen listener.
• You enjoy working side-by-side with Sales teams on a daily basis to strategically grow the business.
• When it comes to advertising, you innately know the difference between r/FellowKids and r/Fellowkidssuccess.
• You’re a collaborator with powerfully persuasive written & verbal communication.
• You thrive in a fast-paced, scrappy, deadline-driven environment and believe that “no job is too little or big”.
• You demonstrate creative flexibility & curiosity…you approach new challenges, clients, verticals and markets with equal enthusiasm.
• You have a talent for visual storytelling and presentation.
• You have a passion for gaming brands and the creative possibilities associated with solving their business challenges.
• You see opportunities through the lens of both Reddit communities and a brand, creating something wonderful in the space between.
• You keep a book/portfolio of creative work that champions your brilliant thinking.
• 4+ years of experience in advertising, PR, media, and/or social media–platform experience a plus.
• Previous experience working on Gaming clients.
• Experience working in partnership with Sales teams.
• Experience pitching concepts to clients virtually and IRL.
• Proven understanding of the relationship between creative agencies, media agencies & brands.
• Ability to prioritize and manage multiple tasks and projects.
• Proficient in Google Slides.
• Portfolio of previous work.

Preferred qualifications:

• Creative Strategy experience at a social media platform.
• Media (integrated marketing or creative strategy) and/or creative agency experience.
• Experience writing professionally for the internet–blogs, articles, social media.
• Comprehensive Healthcare Benefits and Income Replacement Programs
• 401k Match
• Family Planning Support
• Mental Health & Coaching Benefits
• Flexible Vacation & Reddit Global Days off
• Paid Volunteer time off
